Chapter 189.2

Just as the capital city was beginning to calm down, new rumors emerged.

Did you know that Generals Tiangong, Digong, and Rengong, because of their dissatisfaction with His Majesty, have long harbored thoughts of rebellion!

You cant just say things like that; you could lose your head!

Im not talking nonsense! Those three generals had ambitions to declare themselves emperors even before coming to Great Xia! They established the Yellow Sky Sect to prepare for their own imperial claims! It was only after being destroyed by other nations that they had to submit to His Majesty!

Hey! That makes sense, they were almost emperors, just unlucky!Follow current novels on novelb((in).(com)

I heard from a little brother-in-law who works at the generals mansion that he once saw the three generals secretly donning yellow robes, staging a play of being clothed in the imperial robe!

They even have the yellow robes, such audacity!

I heard theyve even prepared the imperial seal!

Once again, the rumors spread rapidly.

Outrageous!

General Rengong slammed the table and stood up in anger, Before, they spread rumors that we were dissatisfied with His Majesty, now theyre directly saying we want to rebel! Even if we had such intentions, do we have the capability? They dont think things through!

Exactly! Those common people dont use their heads. How could anyone believe such a flawed rumor? General Digong agreed, filled with righteous indignation.

General Rengong clenched his teeth in anger: Who is trying to drive us to our deaths? If I catch them, they wont die a good death!

General Tiangong sighed: Catching people is a minor issue; lets go to the palace and see the emperor first!

The three of them entered the palace once again.

Upon seeing them, Lin Beifan smiled and said, Youve come because of the rumors outside saying that youre planning a rebellion?

The three generals immediately knelt down in panic.

Your Majesty, there is absolutely no truth to this; its all nonsense being spread outside!

We are utterly loyal to Your Majesty. How could we ever engage in such actions? It must be someone with ulterior motives trying to frame us. Please, Your Majesty, see through their schemes!

If Your Majesty does not believe us, you may send someone to search our residences!

Lin Beifan waved his hand: No need to be nervous, and theres no need for such trouble! I believe the three of you are innocent, so you may return if theres nothing else. In the future, handle such baseless matters yourselves; theres no need to involve me!

Thank you, Your Majesty! The three generals left, breathing a sigh of relief.

Good thing the Emperor trusts us. Otherwise, even a hundred mouths wouldnt be able to clear our names!

The emperor has shown us such trust; we must not let him down!

So, the most urgent task is to find the person behind this and settle the matter!

With the efforts of the three generals, several people were caught, and gradually, the public opinion settled down.

Xu Dong bowed respectfully, Lord Qin is wise. Indeed, it was our doing behind the scenes!

Qin Hui slammed the table and exclaimed loudly, You dare to plot against the three great generals of Great Xia? What audacity!

Xu Dong shook his head, In truth, we have no desire to harm them! We greatly admire the talents of those three generals and simply wish they would serve our cause! Unfortunately, they are stubborn and unyielding, so we were forced to resort to this strategy, which still proved ineffective!

So, youve come to me for help? Qin Hui said, fuming.

Lord Qin, you truly are astute. No wonder youve risen to such a high position at a young age!

Xu Dong bowed again, We hope that Lord Qin can speak on our behalf in court! Should you succeed, a generous reward will surely follow! Here is a deposit for your troubles. Please accept it!

Qin Hui took the banknote handed to him.

It was 50,000 taels of silver, and that was just the deposit!

However, Qin Hui was still furious, pointing at the other party with the banknote, With just this amount of money, you expect me to harm the loyal and good? I cannot do such a thing! Get out of here!

Lord Qin, dont be so hasty in your decision!

Xu Dong said with a sly smile, Since you took office, youve embezzled a total of 500,000 taels of silver! We have records and evidence of every instance of your corruption! What do you think would happen if it all came to light?

Qin Huis expression darkened, are you threatening me?

Its not a threat, just mutual benefit!

Xu Dong smiled, As long as Lord Qin helps us with this matter, we will hand over all records and evidence of your corruption! In doing so, not only will you eliminate a potential threat, but youll also make an easy profit. Isnt that wonderful?

Qin Huis expression fluctuated, wrestling with the decision.

After a while, he said, Just this once, and never again!

Lord Qin is wise! Xu Dong bowed.

But the money cant be less! Qin Hui added.

As if Xu Dong had anticipated this, he smiled, Lord Qin, how much do you want?

Qin Hui held up five fingers, At least 500,000 taels!

Xu Dong: F*ck!
